Gottlieb Soundboard on FPGA
A replacement for Gottlieb soundboards.
Features:
- NEW: hardware v4.00 comes with integrated FPGA, no extra piggyback FPGA board needed anymore.
- emulation of ALL System1 soundboards
- emulation of ALL System80 & 80A soundboards (including speech)
- emulation of early System80B soundboards (see list below)
- speech capabilities without the 'rare' SC-01 speech chip
- 5Volt only, no additional powersupply needed
- easy update of software via 'USB Blaster'
The speech is generated via a cheap MP3 player device, giving the opportunity to change the speech easily.
Parts needed
The PCB will be preassembled with all components by JLCPCB except the following parts. I added an example link to aliexpress shop where I ordered succesfully in the past.
Two standard micro SD cards ( one for the speeches in DFplayer and one to store the Gottlieb rom code for the FPGA) with minimum 1GB space each.
- DFplayer and second SD card is only needed for games with speech
Documentation & Software
NOTE: Some Miniplayers do not work with Stereo and/or wav files. If you facing troubles with the files in 'speech.zip' try the mono version in 'speech (mono MP3).zip'
how to order your Gosof PCB
Have a look to the PCB documentation section.
Needed Gerber Data, BOM and CPL you find below.
In order to have best results (less soldering errors) best to use ENIG for the surface finish and check the'Gold Fingers' option
devices supported
At the moment with software v4.01 all System1, System80 & 80A and early 80B games are supported!
